curio cabinet or display cabinet?

There is a sideboard , a table and curio cabinet in my living room.
Is the word "curio cabinet" correct? Or should I say display cabinet?. As far as I know a display cabinet may be in shops to display the goods to customers. The one in home is curio cabinet , isn't it? Or else are they the same things?
thanks in advance.:)

Re: curio cabinet or display cabinet?

What do you mean? A cupboard with glass doors?
